Tony says ...

Apparently the mint really slowed down production in 1815, making only 47,150 coins that year for the half dollar denomination. Oddly enough, all 1815-dated coins are actually overdates with a "2" hiding beneath the 5. That "2" is visible and is best seen on the PCGS website for the issue. This is the KEY date of the Capped Bust Half Dollar series, and they command crazy premiums in grades higher than XF45. This coin is all-around choice and original and has a lovely toned appearance as seen in the photos.
